Hi all, a number of other open source projects have started providing Vagrant[1] VMs that come with all development tools preinstalled.
We should totally have one of those. Is anyone here up for setting one up? I’d say the minimum we need is: - some linux distro - Erlang R15+ - Other CouchDB dependencies as per `INSTALL.Unix` and `DEVELOPERS` - git - A clone of the CouchDB git repo - Minimal instructions on how to build/test CouchDB and how to send patches There’s a lot more we can do, but this is a nice minimal set that we could start shipping. Any takers? This would making contributing to CouchDB a lot easier :) Best Jan -- [1] http://www.vagrantup.com
